I'm in a similar situation, with a similar mindset and education (i.e. none)
Sure, a broad skillset would make an excellent case for starting your own business, but I think that being a "jack of all trades" is a sign of a certain personality: great vision and engineering talent, but lack of disciplin to really follow through.
Trying to start my own business has been the most frustrating chapter of my life. I would drop projects regularly to work on something more exciting. I never got anything done until I randomly found a job with a good boss.
Good management is crucial. Someone who can keep up with new ideas and who can delegate the burden which comes with project work.
The field is in my view irrelevant; you would pick up the skills anyway.

My name is Antal. K is the initial of my last name.
Glad we cleared that up.

For what it's worth, this only occurs when connected to an external monitor -- which causes the discrete GPU to overheat, even with no apps running.
Using the built-in display (with the discrete GPU on) is fine.
